Chemical Peels

Chemical Peels are procedures that involve a chemical solution that is applied to the skin, which causes the outermost layer of skin to separate and peel off.* The new, regenerated skin underneath is usually smoother in texture and in color than the old skin.* There are various types of chemical peels, each developed for specific indications such as wrinkles, acne, overall skin texture and skin tone.* Some chemical peels are mild and have no downtime, while others are stronger and may require downtime for up to one week.* Chemical peels can be performed on the face, neck, chest, hands, arms, and legs.*

Generally, no anesthesia is needed for peels since they cause only a slight stinging sensation during application.* Protecting skin from the sun is important following a peel. In a consultation with Dr. Rubinstein or our aesthetician, a treatment regimen is designed to identify the type of peel based on the condition of your skin and the desired result as well as available recovery time.

Downtime: 2-3 days of medium/heavy peeling beginning 2 days after procedure*

The VITALIZE Peel from SkinMedica brings the benefit of a unique blend of acids to create one of the strongest, but safest and most gentle, epidermal peels.* Even after one peel, you will begin to notice a dramatic improvement in your skin’s texture and tone, lessening of superficial lines and a healthier, more youthful look and feel.* The renewal process has been clinically proven to help pigmentation problems (such as age spots) fade and stimulate collagen production in the cells underneath.* The VITALIZE Peel is safe and gentle for all skin types.*
